ROSE AND LINDA'S JOURNAL YES VIRGINIA JESUS IS REAL

Psalm 145:18

'The Lord is near to all who call upon Him, to all who call upon Him in truth."

Sometimes He seems so far away, like we can never reach Him.  He is closer than you think, yes even in the middle of your worst storm, He is there.  We have listened to many stories of people wondering why did God not hear or answer this request.  

There are many things that can stop our prayers from being answered, and times where they were answered but not the way we wanted.  Did God answer Job?  Yes, not the answer Job asked, but an answer that caused Job to sit back and say Praise the Lord.  Who are we to question God?  Well God does not mind us asking Him why.  Don't expect the answer to be to your liking all the time.  

Many times I have sat back and in talking to the Lord said, 'I know You have a plan, would it be too much to ask just what that plan is?'  Sometimes He has answered and sometime He has not.  In looking back I can see where I was not strong enough for the answer, other times I would have said if that is what I have to walk through 'No thanks'.  

This we do know though He is real.  And He is here, whether we can see or feel Him, He is right here.

God Bless
